New Zealand has legalized, regulated prostitution, and so the NZ Occupation and Health Service has produced a safety manual for sex-workers that talks about all the usuals (how to unionize, smoking in the workplace, handwashing, repetitive strain injuries) as well as prostitution-specific issues.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
